Hey Pandas, What Are Some Cool Facts We Should Know? (Closed)

Share some cool facts you know, and maybe we still don't but should know.

Fun facts about giraffes:
1) The horns on top of a giraffe's head are called osicones. If the osicones have tufts of fur on the top of them, the giraffe is male. Female giraffes do not have tufts of fur on their osicones.
2) The average gestational period of a giraffe is 15 months. Each preganacy usually results in a single live birth, although twins can occur from time to time.
3) Giraffes are a threatened species. There are 12 known subspecies of giraffe, 7 of which have become extinct, leaving only 5 subspecies of giraffe.
4) Giraffes do not have vocal cords
5) Male giraffes live in bachelor herds while the females and the young live in separate herds.
6) The correct way for a giraffe to wear a necktie is at the base of his neck close to his body, not at the top of his neck under his chin.
7) I have a stuffed giraffe named Aislyn. She wears a purple hoodie, a tutu, and roller skates. She makes me happy every time I look at her.

Strawberries are not berries, they are "accessory fruits". And their seeds are actually ovaries.

Fresh pee is cleaner than spit. So always wash surfaces with saliva on it, it carries a lot more germs than you think.

TIME TO SPILL FACTS ABOUT CHICKENS!!!!!

1. Most chickens are actually okay with you taking their eggs. Their instinct to guard eggs are mostly breed out of them. There are still some hens that will guard eggs, but now they lay them and don't care. Sometimes even eat the eggs themselves! Hens with the instinct are called broody and will gather all the eggs in sight, doesn't matter if they laid them or not, and sit on them for 22 hours a day for three weeks until they hatch.

2. You can train chickens. Mine come when I call, or shake their treat bag. They understand less and more.

3. Chickens if given enough human attention can be like a dog. Mine have come up to me and sat on my lap!

4. Most eggs at stores or chicken you eat come from abused chickens who were in battery cell cages their whole life, or stuffed in a building with thousands of other chickens and nothing to protect them from each other. Chickens do come in flocks, but there is such thing as too many in an area

Your dog loves the sound of your voice, and is happier when you talk to her. Tell her about your day, babble a bunch of gibberish, or simply tell her how pretty and how good she is and the endorphins will flow. For an added bonus, sit on the floor with her when you’re regaling her with tall tales. She loves that, too!
